Cheddleton (6/5), Eclair D'Ainay (4/1), Fransham (11/2), Nuts Well (7/1), Katpoli (10/1), Cornerstone Lad (12/1)

Verdict

A case can be made for all of these, but FRANSHAM jumped really well when comfortably opening his account over C&D last month and is taken to defy a 3 lb rise in the weights. Cheddleton rates a big threat on the back of his excellent Cheltenham second however, with the likeable Nuts Well not taken lightly either.

  1. FRANSHAM
  2. CHEDDLETON
  3. NUTS WELL
